FAQ
What are your wedding package rates?
My rates no matter the length of the wedding is a minimum of $1200 to book.
Anything past 6 hours my rate is $200/hr.
How many pictures will we receive?
Depending on the length of the wedding, anywhere from 100 - 300 photos will be returned.
Wedding Photo Consultation
For every wedding booked with me, I require a wedding photo consultation. This is (2) free wedding consultations so we are on the same page. This happens either over a phone call or Zoom meeting.
First and foremost we make sure you are aligned with my photo work, you like my photographer approach and style.
Once we decide we are good fit we go into wedding details, such as venue address, parking, schedule of day of wedding, if we'd like to include bridal and groom prep, along with post-ceremony bride and groom shots.
Family shots, decide which family members are on your family photo list, length of wedding, if you'd like me to also take photos at the reception following, etc.
A contract will be emailed following this consultation with a required non-refundable 50% deposit to be fulfilled before officially booked.
We will schedule a 2nd wedding photo consultation closer to the wedding date to confirm plans and update any info that may have changed following up to the wedding. A shot list, wedding info document (contact info, venue detail etc), and mood board with poses will be shared during this consultation as well.
Film Add-On
Film add-ons are totally an option! If you'd like me to shoot both digital and film at your wedding that is totally doable.
I charge $200 film add-on. This includes (3) rolls of film and the price for it to be developed. The film usually takes around the same time to develop as the digital edit time. The fee includes purchase of film, editing of film (very minimal edits) and the process to develop the film.
The film will be digitized as well and sent through the same platform I send the digitals, just in a separate album.
What makes you unique in your wedding photographer services?
Besides me being very prepared and detail oriented, I am naturally a very sociable and a people person. That is why I thrive in this industry. I can read a room very well and when I am photographing a wedding the bride and groom are always top priority.
No matter the noise in the background from other people involved in the wedding, I will always prioritize the bride and groom's vision.
You want me to be a fly on the wall and capture mostly candid, I got ya!
Need a director to step up and organize your people, maybe quiet down the family with their photo opinions, I got ya!
I am a yoga teacher and constantly teach the importance of the present moment. This day will go by in a flash and I am here to capture that second, nostalgic experience for you to look back on.
I am also a really good dancer on the dance floor and love connecting with new people! I know how to stay professional but also have a good time!
When will we receive our photos?
Edited wedding photos are generally returned back to clients within (4) weeks.
How long can we hire you for?
I am very flexible when it comes to hire length for weddings. I can do bridal and groom prep, ceremony, post-ceremony bridal and groom shots, family shots, and reception.
Or you can hire me for a portion of the day. I can do just ceremony and reception or just bridal/groom prep and ceremony. Either works with me, my wedding package starts at a minimum of $1200 for booking.
We don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?
That is absolutely ok! With everything we try for the first time or something that is new to us, it takes practice to feel comfortable. I will do my best to provide guided poses you can naturally lean into and usually after the first 15 minutes you will find the poses that feel most natural to you.
Sometimes trying new poses can feel uncomfortable, but on the camera look great! I always show my clients the photos after I take them so they know what it's looking like throughout the process and if they want to change how they incorporate they can.
I am experienced in candid photography and always provide in-motion prompts that clients can follow and the photos look effortless and easeful.
When it comes to intimate photos for couples or engagement photos, I provide prompts for the couple to really center themselves in and almost feel like I am no longer there.
I am a professional fly on the wall when need be. But can easily step into the director roll when needed.
I am happy to provide reference photos that we can look at and try to replicate the pose. For engagement sessions and more in-depths sessions, I create mood boards as well.
Wedding Videography?
At this time, I do not include wedding videography. If you hire a separate videography along with myself, please share my info with them.
I like to work closely and be on the same page as the videographer so everything is streamlined.
